A Delightful san and Splendid Din


The late hour at which the excursionists
reached this city precluded the possibility
of the SUNDAY MORNING News publishing
a detailed account of the stag excursion to
Dorlon's Point yesterday week, last Sun
day. The excursion was purely sub
scription affair, and as no newspaper men
whatever were invited, the members OF the
club could not have offended the press,
and need have no fear of their being boy
cotled, except by patent inside daily pub
lished in this city-a fast which will
inure to their advantage. The excursion
left the CLUBHOUSE at the foot of Wash
ington street with Charles B. Jordan as
commodore of the fl set. at about 45, and
after delightful sail of five hours reached
Dorlan's Point, tie most perfectly delight
full point on the Sound, where the sixty
five hungry boys aboard tae boat went
ashore and within q half hour were gath
cred at table clothed in spray-white
linen, where it took an hour and half to
dispose of the following:
MENB.
Little Neck Clams-Raw.
Clam Chowder.
Steamed Soft CLAIMS.
Broiled Blue Fish. Broiled Sea Bass.
Sliced Tomatoes.
Cucumbers. Rsdishes.
Fried Soft Crabs.
Broiled Spring Chicken.
Asparagus. Green Peas.
White Potatoes Sweet Potatoes.
Boiled Apple Pudding.
Rhubarb Pie.
Coffee
The dinner over the boys went to field
a short distance away, where a game of
ball was enjoyed. 1t was a dandy game,
with the Hudsons versus a picked nine
Charlie Jordan was umpire. Ed. Thorn's
running was sight equal to the run of
the latest fat man in the Fat Mems Club.
After three innings, although the sun was
still two hours high. the umpire called the
game on account of darkness. The Hud-
sons were declared the winners. At six
o'clock the boys re. embarked for home,
Officer Miller and Judge Wanser, who got
sea sick on the way out, Charlie Jordan
and several others returning by rail. 1t
was great voyage home and one that was
hugely enjoyed. A vote was taken on the
boat as to the most popular man aboard
for Police Commissioner. Horace Scher-
merhorn, Jr., was unanimously endorsed.
A fitting compliment to the members of
the club was the presentation by George
p Simonsoa, agent for Catherwood & Co
of case Of 'sThree Fathers" 1t was
thoroughly appreciated. Sd
